The Premier League weekend will feature only one match on Sunday, October 30, with Liverpool hosting Arsenal at 16:30 GMT. This unusual arrangement arises from Aston Villa's participation in the Champions League, prompting their fixture against Fulham to be rescheduled to Saturday at 20:00. Traditionally, at least one match is held at 14:00 on Sundays, but this weekend's schedule diverges, with five games taking place on Saturday and the single Sunday match. The rescheduling aligns with broadcasting commitments as Sky Sports will also air the match against Fulham.
